Gear up for action-packed weekends with earth-saving superheroes only on Toonami

This September, gear up for action-packed weekends with earth-saving superheroes only on Toonami, the country’s home of epic anime adventures.

Premiering on Saturday morning, September 3, is the All Star Superman movie wherein Lex Luthor almost succeeds in killing the Man of Steel. Poisoned by solar radiation, Superman reveals his true identity to Lois Lane. But when Luthor declares his plan to conquer the world, Superman rallies. He gives Lois a serum that grants her superpowers for 24 hours, and together, they aim to defeat subterranean creatures spreading evil in the world.

Meanwhile, in the equally fascinating and futuristic world of Gaist Crusher, Gear Gaists Rekka, Hayato, Kurama and Siren continue to battle 100 species of Gaist creatures to defend humankind. Based on the popular videogame of the same name, the TV series follows the adventures of humans with super-armor who chase metallic lifeforms.

Featuring anime movies and all-new episodes of highly-charged series, Toonami always showcases the best US and Japanese animation. All Star Superman premieres September 3 at 11:45am with an encore at 6:30pm, while Gaist Crusher airs on weekends at 11am with an encore at 9pm.
